Two Voices We Should Have Heeded!

Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament should be the center of every parish and the epicenter of every religious community. Indeed, the Eucharist is to be the center of the universal Church and of all humanity. Why? [Pope] Paul VI says, “Because beneath the veil of the Eucharistic elements is contained the Invisible Head of the Church, the Redeemer of the world, the center of all hearts, through whom all things are and through whom we exist.” [Mysterium Fidei, note 68]. Never before have we had such need of invigorating our faith in the Real Presence and putting that faith into practice. Only Christ on earth can overcome the powers of evil that God in His mysterious providence has allowed to penetrate our day.

Father John A. Hardon, S.J.
